Experiment materials for "Disfluencies in change detection in natural, vocoded and synthetic speech."

The current dataset is associated with the DiSS paper "Disfluencies in change detection in natural, vocoded and synthetic speech." In this paper we investigate the effect of filled pauses, a discourse marker and silent pauses in a change detection experiment in natural, vocoded and synthetic speech. In natural speech change detection has been found to increase in the presence of filled pauses, we extend this work by replicating earlier findings and explore the effect of a discourse marker, like, and silent pauses. Furthermore we report how the use of "unnatural" speech, namely synthetic and vocoded, affects change detection rates.
